Activities

Our Tarangire means getting in step with Nature and the elephants, and going deep into its natural world.

BY DAY

Our guides drive you out into big country. This means waiting as elephant families cross the track, slowly weaving along riverbanks looking for lions, watching leopard asleep in giant baobabs, and scanning the great swathes of elephant grass for big herds of buffalo. There’s nothing small about these days.

BY NIGHT

As a special Nomad treat, we can drive after sunset and uncover the night creatures of the park. Often the first sign that something is out there, is a pair of eyes shining in the dark; it could be anything: a porcupine, a zorilla, a hyena loping home. This time too is when you learn how quietly an elephant treads.

bush walks

A striking quality of the African bush is the soundtrack: a cacophony of trills, hoots, snorts and rumbles; this amplifies when walking quietly through the bush, in the hope of seeing game up close. We’ve special permission to walk in this park, a total privilege for those seeking a greater connection with the wild.

BACK IN CAMP

We’re in such a sweet spot here, that you don’t really have to do anything but wander out of your tent for full-on wildlife. Being on a game corridor, not far from the river, we are besieged by animals - elephant, antelopes, buffalo - and birds. All seem to feel the camp is their backyard, not ours (to be fair, they’re right).
